Why I Stock Up on Raspberries & How I Use Them Later

…buy a whole bunch and freeze them. (How to Freeze Raspberries)

I didn’t mean to go back into Kroger this week.  But I couldn’t let the $1 raspberry sale pass by without taking advantage! I stopped in and picked up 15 packages, and then froze them all.

Raspberry Recipes

Here area few ways you can then use up your frozen raspberries from your stockpile…

    You can also make them into a strained sauce and then freeze that for drinks, ice cream, cheesecakes, etc.

    Be sure to make raspberry lemonade. I throw a (frozen) handful or two in the blender with any kind of regular lemonade. Your kids will love you… err, more! 🙂

    I’ve cooked down some raspberries, strained and added the liquid into a buttercream frosting for cupcakes and smoothies of course.

    What size are those containers, 6 oz? A local patch lets you pick them yourself (in august usually) for $1.50/pt. I wash and freeze them on cookie sheets then put them in freezer bags like you do. I make jam and pies from them and people love them!

    So jealous of your raspberries, they are 2 for $5 here. Not the same.
